  • You Don't See Him For What He Truly Is

    You tell him he will always fail
    Yet he holds his dreams in his heart so well
    You hold his past against him persistently
    Yet he gets better and someday you will see
    You call him a moron, a fool, and an idiot, it never ends
    Yet he still has room in his heart to be your friend
    You tell him to become a master is setting his goal too high
    Yet he keeps that far off look in his eyes
    You don't see him for what he truly is
    Yet he has showed you, just look at all he does

  • Pretty decent poem...

    Though a few errors and whatnot. I'm not sure if you really intend those or something but let's see...

    See, the problem with some free-verse poems like yours, it won't sound right to some because the rythm might be jagged and I'm sure that's not the syntax that you're aiming for. This poem surely doesn't need paragraphing but probably a little fix in the rythm. Rhyme is another thing because you kinda confused me with your rhyme scheme: a b cc dd(?) ee(?) f g

    I'm not sure with the rhymes with "end" and "friends" and the same for "high" and "eyes"... but I've seen many other people (like Bono... O___O) use these kind of rhymes and they do work.

    Another thing:
    You call him a moron, a fool, & an idiot, it never ends

    It's not the best way to use those symbols because they make the poem look all ugly and stuff... Some poets use those symbols but only to use a theme in a way where the whole poem is composed of symbols.

    If you didn't like this review, just ignore it... XD I just came here to comment...>>;;

    That is so deep. =O *sigh* I can relate too. I see Ash in his great qualites. He is totally cool. Some people don't see Satoshi what he truly is. You prove it prefectly. Me likes the poem. =3

  • Oh, I really like this one! It's really sweet. It's really shame that everyone don't see how special Satoshi really is, but there always be people who do

  • OMG What a beautiful poem Toto =3 I love how well the sentences rhyme and also tell the truth at the same time ^^
    The title goes perfectly with the poem and the poem itself is very impressively written!
    You have a indredible talent with writing and I always look forward to your future works =3

  • One observation shall prove that this poem is very limited and not very carefully constructed...

    shortest line: 7 syllables
    longest line: 16 syllables

    conclusion: not fluant at all... it just won't work period. It's too great of a range in syllables to even consider it a poem at all.

    as well as what Niko has said already, some of the key lines lacked the "ring" in the last word... it doesn't sound too nice (poems are meant to be read out loud, remember), and the emphasize is not on the last word. For example, the last line... the emphasize is actually in the middle of the line, and the last part of the line is useless. The most important idea should be coming at the end, not the middle.

    Plenty of editing to do...
